Residents in the Wattle Range Council area now have a powerful tool at their fingertips with the two-way integration of the Antenno app.
The app aims to help residents stay informed and report local issues directly to council.
Council chief executive Ben Gower encouraged residents to embrace the new technology.
“Residents can simply download the app and add places within Wattle Range Council to start receiving notifications about things that matter in the area and report issues affecting the community directly to us,” he said.
“From receiving alerts about bin collection changes and road closures to reporting a pothole, broken sign, or vandalism, the app provides a streamlined, modern way for locals to stay connected with what’s happening around them.”
Mr Gower said the app is about giving people the right tools to help improve our community and council area.
“Whether it’s a pothole on your street, a broken tap at the park, or a missing sign – this app makes it easy for residents to let us know including uploading a photo and pinning a location,” he said.
“The ‘Report It’ feature allows users to lodge ‘non-urgent’ issues officially, ensuring they’re entered directly into council systems for action. This helps council respond efficiently, track problems, and better plan for future improvements.
“Additional issues residents can report include graffiti or vandalism, damage to community facilities nuisance animal issues and much more.
“I want to remind residents that if the issue they are reporting is a public safety concern, we still recommend that a call is made to council so it can be actioned immediately.”
